Synth Explorer – our dedicated homage to classic electronic instruments from the past - focusing this time on the Roland CompuRhythm CR-78 Drum Machine.

You’ll find a staggering collection of 1,991 individual Loops recorded in crystal-clear 24 Bit, featuring the rich analog warmth only possible from vintage gear. We have painstakingly recorded all the main preset patterns including Variations, Percussion and Fills – ideal for electronic music, or any genre in need of some retro vintage charm.

The CR-78 was originally designed to be an accompaniment for electronic organs, and comes with a number of preset fills with A/B variations for each style. It features 14 Analog Drum sounds, with a Bass Drum, Snare Drum, Rim Shot, Hi Hat, Cymbal, Maracas, Claves, Cowbell, Cymbals, Bongos, Congas and Guiro.

Synth Explorer CR78 features one of the earliest Drum machines to allow users to program and store their own patterns in addition to the Rock, Disco, Waltz, Bossa Nova, Rhumba, Shuffle, Swing, Foxtrot, Tango, Boogie and more. Synth Explorer CR-78 comes at tempos from 80-120BPM – ideal for Synthwave, Electronica, Hip Hop, House, Downbeat and Ambient Genres.
